Black women in search of methodologies for the decolonization of feminism

Abstract

From a decolonial perspective, this article considers coloniality as the basis of universalizing feminism, which disregards black women in their speeches, struggles and approaches. The universalization of women leads us to gender coloniality, according to a white feminism and academic, which contributes to the maintenance of oppressive relationships directed at black women. The purpose of this analysis is to show that the decolonization of feminism can begin with methodological strategies for the valorization of the listening and speech of black women. I bring an existence-text that aims to reflect its own writing practice in the struggle for the decolonization of feminism.
